Red, White & Blue Gala Event

Join us on Saturday, April 11th at 6:00 pm for the 2026 Gala. This will take place at the Henny Penny Owners Hall. More details at a later date. We are delighted to host the first-ever fundraising gala. We would like to thank Henny Penny for the gracious space they are providing. The historical society has grown leaps and bounds over the last 5 years, and now we must look into the future. We have established an Endowment Trust through the St Clair Foundation and have set a goal of raising $250,000 for the fund to celebrate America's 250th Birthday. An endowment is important because it helps sustain the life of a non-profit organization. Our annual operating budget is close to $180,000. If we can build the forever endowment, we can operate off of the interest each year. We hope that all who support PCHS will bring their friends and family! We will all celebrate history together, while enjoying a great meal catered by Olde Richmond Inn and Blu Sky's Cafe. There will be a Cash Bar as well. This is a Semi-Formal Event, and it's fun to dress up to celebrate. There will be a silent auction and ways to give all throughout the night! For us to survive, we have to have a solid plan. Join us either way. Thank you!
